DEFEAT DAMPENS
HALLOWEEN
ARDOR
Students Half-Heartedly Pile
Wagons on Steps of
Academic Hall.
ONE CADET STANDS ON GUARD
Cigar Store Indian, Swings
and a Playhouse Are
Moved.
Halloween, with its wierd traditions,
merry-making and pranks was decid
edly lacking in interest and enthusi
asm at the University of Missouri Sat
urday night.
When a scouting party brought a
wagon, lawn swing or some other ar
ticle to the steps of Academic Hall, the
act was greeted with forced exclama
tions of pleasure.
One Freshman cadet posted at the
Agricultural building remained faith
ful to his trust With a fixed bayonet,
he defied the crowd to enter the build
ing. When he had apparently stabbed
one of the students and had been hus
tled off amid the exclamations "Hang
'im," "Go get a rope," and other angry
cries, he detected the joke played on
him.
Customarily no effort is spared to do
some "stunt" that Is difficult, such as
the burying of the large boiler in front
of Academic Hall last year. Saturday
night, the students were contented
with half a dozen wagons, a cigar
store Indian and a few other miscel
laneous articles piled on the front
steps of Academic Hall.
A small crowd of students started to
take a small playhouse from Hitt
street but dropped it and run when
they heard the angry tones of the own
er. The debris was cleared away Sun
day morning.
"CO-EDS" TELL REAL

"Dance of the Goblins" Another Feature
of Entertainment.
Attired in original costumes repre
senting r-pinsters of uncertain ages, "co
eds" of the University of Missouri car
ried on a lively discussion of man at
the Y. W. C. A. social Saturday even
ing. The discussion was ended by the
appearance of a man with a wonderful
machine which could, by the turning ot
a crank, change anyone into whatever
he mo-t wished to 1k. The terrible

a modern Romeo and .luliet, all young
and beautiful. At last the awful pen
alty of giving a false age was grue
somely illustrated.
The "Dance of the Goblins" received
prolonged applause when they cast Dr.
Meyer's system of grading, represented
by an "I," into the kettle to boil.
Other original features of the even
ing's entertainment were '"A Scene in
Read Hall Reading Room," "Negro Mel
odies as Tiiey Arc Sung on a Georgia
Plantation." "and "The Kindergarten,"
in which young women, dressed as chil
dren, replied to the teacher's questions
with witty payings in verse.
At the close of the program, the
s-pinsters found consolation in the bar
rels of cider and apples and the stacks
of gingerbread and doughnuts in the
second-floor corridors.

PENCILED ON SIDELINES
AS GAME WENT FORWARD
The cheering did not sound so en
thusiastic Saturday as it did at the
Iowa game. This was largely eaused
by the different kind of football put
up by the Tigers.
Among those who took the defeat
hardest, was Dr. W. G. Bek, whose
heart was almost broken by those Iowa
touchdowns, that is if the expression
of his face were to be taken as an
index of his feelings.
If Driver had heard the "Ohs" that
sounded as though they came from
the heart of every Co-Ed on the bleach
ers, when he was found to be seriously
injured, he would have been somewhat
consoled for the kick on his head.
Between the halves, 'Tommy" Moni
law, Coach Monilaw's son, and "Tubby"
Graves, entertained the crowd on the
bleachers, by kicking and catching a
football along the sidelines. The foot
ball was almost as large as Tommy
but he handled it manfully.
ST. LOUIS U.

QWants a Contest With
3Middle-Western Team.;
Special Correspondence.
SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 2. J. Hous
ton McCroskey, manager of the footlwll
team at Washington State College,
Pullman, south of here, announced it is
likeh that locrs of the game in Spo
kane will have an opportunity to see
the husky eleven of otre Dame Uni
versitv in action against the bunch
coached by Walter M. Rheinschild. The
game will be played in Spokane.
The Carlisle Indians were to play in
Spokane in Decemljcr, but the trip to
the Northwest was cancelled by the
Reds.
In addition to the game with the
Hoo-iers it is likely that negotiations
with the St. Louis University team will
again lie taken up for a game in Spo
kane. Mr. McCroskey believes that a game
with the Notre Dame team will give
the "rooters" in this part of the country
an opportunity to get a better line on
the play.s of Middle Western and
Northwestern team-, and for that rea
son he is giving all his attention to
that team at present.
He said: "We are going to bring one
of the big eastern college teams to this
part of the Northwest this season, and
as Spokane is the central point in the
Inland Empire, the game will be played
in this citv, probably at Recreation
park, which has facilities and accommo
dations for anywhere from 7,000 to
10,000 people."
